Back pain caused by a herniated or bulging disc can be debilitating. In the past, surgery was often the only option. Today, however, advanced technology allows us to relieve this pain without surgery through a treatment called spinal decompression.

The program is designed and supervised by our skilled staff, gently stretching and relaxing the spine in a controlled rotation. Over time, this separates the vertebrae, creating a vacuum-like effect that draws the herniated or bulging disc material back into place. This process can alleviate back pain and reduce pressure on surrounding nerves. For example, patients with a herniated disc in the lower back often experience sciatic pain down the legs, which typically diminishes as the disc is relieved.
Treatment time and frequency vary depending on the patient’s condition. Each spinal decompression session usually lasts about 20 minutes, and patients typically attend a few sessions per week. Most treatment plans are completed within eight weeks.
If you are suffering from a herniated or bulging disc, we will work with you to create a spinal decompression plan tailored to your body. Instead of relying on pain medications that only mask the issue, ask us how spinal decompression can help you find lasting relief.
